Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a hand-held device with a built-in fingerprint sensor that does not compromise the user's ability to move the cursor or pointer on the display screen. The device detects a time change in the position of the finger or pressure applied on the fingerprint sensor to move the cursor or pointer. The device can also display a message or an image after fingerprint registration is complete. Additionally, the device can remember and use associated information on each fingerprint for function unlocking or image display. The technical effect of the invention is to improve the user experience and operability of the hand-held device with a built-in fingerprint sensor.

Problems solved by technology

As a result, the operability deteriorates very much.

Embodiment Construction

[0032]Hereafter, embodiments of the present invention are explained by using the drawings. FIG. 1 is front elevation of a hand-held device. Main body 1 comprises display unit 2 and control panel 3. A character is displayed on display unit 2 by pushing various buttons provided to control panel 3, and the desired menu is selected and indicated by moving the displayed cursor. Fingerprint sensor part 4 is provided on the position of control panel 3 where it is easy for the berry side of finger to touch when holding said control panel with either one of right and left hands. The size of fingerprint sensor part 4 is decided from a necessary area of the fingerprint necessary to attest the fingerprint. The sizes from all sides 9 millimeters to all sides 15 millimeters are usually preferable. Because it only has to be shape that information on the fingerprint can be acquired when the fingerprint is registered or attested, as for the shape of fingerprint sensor part 4, its shape is not limite...

Abstract

To provide a hand-held device with built-in fingerprint sensor provided on a control panel, which does not ruins the operability of the movement of a cursor or a pointer of the display screen.A hand-held device with built-in fingerprint sensor comprises a fingerprint sensor for the fingerprint attestation provided on a control panel. A cursor or a pointer displayed on a display unit is moved according to a time change in the position where the pressure is provided or the movement of the finger on the sensor side of the fingerprint sensor. Further, the timing when said time change is detected is decided according to a time change in the position of the finger on said sensor side or the applied pressure.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention relates to a hand-held device provided with a sensor which attests the fingerprint.BACKGROUND ART[0002]To prevent unauthorized uses other than the owner as a hand-held device such as a portable telephone spreads, the hand-held device with built-in function of the fingerprint attestation is proposed (For instance, refer to Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2002-330202).[0003]The fingerprint sensor is built into central position of a control panel in this device. The unauthorized use is prevented by automatically attesting the fingerprint when the fingerprint such as the left hand thumbs which the user usually uses for the operation is registered beforehand, and the hand-held device is used.[0004]This configuration comprises the piezo-electric type fingerprint sensor or the electrostatic capacity type fingerprint sensor. In addition, cursor buttons are provided on the above and below and the right and left in its surroundings. The fin...
